AD being posted up near the 3 point line and backed down all the way to the rim shows he was right to not want to play center full-time.

AD is on another level. He lead the series in points while playing with....Lebron. Jokic could never, or play defense. Y'all dudes are a joke :mjlol:

AD finished averaged 32 PPG in the WCF.

32 PPG leading scorer of the series
89% FT%
55% FG

Means nothing. AD couldn't do shyt with his own team.. you can't take his ring away (I'm assuming LA wins through) but LeBron is what makes the team go and that's all there is to it. The pressure is off AD.

If AD was the type of player that was leading his teams to conference finals and struggling to get over the hump there would be a point to the discussion but they weren't even competitive.
Another Day... another season end's without Jokic winning shyt :mjlol::mjlol::mjlol:

SMF and LAX to VA and NC
First two rounds Jokic went for 25/11/8 on 52/44 shooting...

WCF he fell to 21.8/7.2/5, still shot 53% from the floor and 38% from 3 but being able to single cover him with Dwight was a game changer...

AD shot 54% from the floor and 33% from 3 while going 31.2/6.2/2.6...

Their back and forth when they checked each other was entertaining, and really there isnt a large gap either way. Gotta give it to AD right now but Jokic us right there...

He was an amazing talent but he put up a lot of empty stats, he’s wasn’t that much different than Kevin Love in Minnesota but AD had more talent around him than Love did, AD had real solid vets in their prime playing with him. The problem with them was that they can never build chemistry cuz AD would miss time for petty injuries, he would play 10 games in a row and then miss the next 3 game cuz of a sore thumb or something like that. It would throw the whole teams chemistry off. A lot of people in Nola lost respect for him cuz he told his agent to put out the narrative that Pelicans just didn’t put the talent around him, which is bullshyt, the truth is AD isn’t that kind of guy to put a franchise on his back he’s a sidekick.
